Place and Time
This is the case wherever the offence is
punished with that that not complicated punishment which denominates
it a felony. Part of this punishment
if the felony be as the phrase is, without
clergy, consists in death; other part in universal
forfeiture. This forfeiture is given
nominally to the King: whose privilege it is
on all occasions to trample on the [concurrent]
rights of subjects. It were well if it were so in
reality: for the King of the present constitution,
who is the reverse of the ugly grim idol of that
name fashioned not by the hands of antient
idols, judges would probably all be obedient pay obedience to the
laws of universal justice. This however the
old law has taken care for the most part to prevent: by giving
the forfeiture + in the metropolis and the opulent populous county of Middlesex in reality to the Sheriffs, a set of
men who being plunder'd by the public, have
a sort of equdtable title to plunder in their turn.
In certain cases of theft and robbery,
the law upon certain conditions restores a man his goods, if they happen
to be forthcoming: it would have been too
great
